"Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command Of romance gone wrong The same old glue and never coming true, never true" only morrissey could write this
I listened to this song, smoked a lot, cried... such songs keep my faith in humanity alive. Russia is outside my window, it looks like an evil senile old woman.
@@mini_mozzer I can't remember which specific one, but somewhere on TH-cam there's an interview from a few years ago where he says that he'd been diagnosed with some form of cancer. It's obviously been treated successfully.
"Wait a minute, Morryssey? i thougth that i wrote Morrissey, Why didn't someone tell me? Oh, I've been making an idiot out of myself" haha Thanks for the correction, I did not even realize :)
Ha ha...that.s ok-I am sure His Lordship will forgive you...but he does tend to hold a grudge..."beware, I bear more grudges than lonely high court judges".
This album seems to be Morrissey resting his case, after he has changed his plea to guilty?or is it just me? We shall see on Nov 17th-I will be in Berlin that day but hope to see him on Feb 20 2018 in Dublin.
Well thats is an interesting perspective hahaha. But i really have hope about this album. Look, let me tell you, i'm from argentina and lately it's been happening a lot of things that the social media has been used to entretaiment, and the first song "spent the day in bed" was like the air that i need in this times. And this song, when he say's "Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command" is like a shot of reality that people need. But anyway, i'm gonna wait for the all album, so i can give a complete opinion. PD: Sorry for mi english :)
Tombs are full of fools who gave their lives upon command of heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin....and never coming back, never coming back!.....5th day for me off the junk. Very fragile state. Thank you Moz for helping me quit.
I wish you lonely If only for one day So that you might see routine for me Since the day I was born, born Think of yourself only Of everything you demand Or you want or you need And to hell To hell with everybody else, everybody else Turn the key slowly Remember how I can't sleep Or if ever I do, an earthquake An earthquake couldn't agitate, couldn't agitate Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command Of monarchy, oligarch, head of state, potentate And now never coming back, never coming back Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command Of Romance gone wrong, the same old glue And never coming true, never coming true Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command of Heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin And never coming back, never coming back I wish you lonely Like the last tracked humpback whale Chased by gunships from Bergen But never giving in, never giving in Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Martin James Boorer / Steven Patrick Morrissey
Am I the only person in the world that thinks Morrissey solo is better than The Smiths, his voice, his current societal relevance, and I am a huge Smiths fan, but Morrissey solo, so powerful. Saw him in Brighton recently, his singing was the best I have heard him live, and I have been watching him since 1991.
Batassassin you make me think of the kids I saw at hong Kong Disney they weren't going on any rides they were just lining up to get a photo with a man in a mickey mouse costume. Even when they had toys they didn't play with them. Kids who Dont know how to play or have fun makes me deeply sad its like they had already given up and they were only five or six years old.
I notice a lot of people are going on about how this is disrespectful, saying their parents, grandparents, etc were forced into war and should therefor not be considered "fools", yet I think these people are missing that maybe Morrissey is meaning only people who were actually fools giving up their lives *on their own accord* for a distasteful government/ belief (people who believe in monarchies). I think this is the case because he says "on command", which I take more as... the people jumped at the offer, "for king and country!" "loyal to the state" type stuff... not just anyone who ever went to war. Just those who chose to go to war for a questionable cause (like for the Monarchy)... I could be wrong, but I'd like to give Mozzy the benefit of the doubt, especially considering the theme of this album is anti-Monarchy/ Monarchy beliefs, not anti-citizen or anything like that. Also, he says "romance gone wrong", which I think he's referring to the one-sidedness of a citizen loving a corrupt government (fighting for something and that said something not acknowledging your efforts).
I agree. Morrissey is not attacking young men who join the military per se, but the sadness of people being desperate for money or prestige and thus signing up to be cannon fodder for the machinations of rich and evil men.
Everyone who dies for his country is a fool. The fact most of them are forced to actually make this only more cruel and absurd, cause dying upon command for politician aims is foolish, its not like dying for a personal ideal for example. i cry for everyone who died forced upon command for NOTHING.
Wow he is back more stronger than ever, that bloody gorgeous voice ..... "ohhhhhh never giving in, never giving in" Oh nunca te rindas, nunca te rindas VIVA MORRISSEY!!!
@@colectivonmc4909 And Morrissey is going further (lyrically and musically) than the Smiths could ever go. Have you ever heard the last Marr´s record? Could fit well for Taylor Switft.
When he performed this in Feb in Brum it was bloody brilliant. I got goosebumps. He’s just superb. A fan since The Smiths and always will be. He has me mesmerised. 💜
Morrissey is Music.
He's a poet. No other artist brings such acerbic, biting lyrics
Yessssssss - you got Morrissey - exactly!!!!!!!!
It’s Co written
@@trevorsheridan5788Not the lyrics.
This is one of his best songs ever.
It is incredibly good.
Hahahaha
Agree
Vive les 🐳 ‘s
"Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command
Of romance gone wrong
The same old glue and never coming true, never true"
only morrissey could write this
Different level no other artist brave enough to say these things ..
I listened to this song, smoked a lot, cried... such songs keep my faith in humanity alive. Russia is outside my window, it looks like an evil senile old woman.
No BS, no sellout ... he has stuck to his guns throughout
It's horrid how much I love MORRISSEY.
Actually, My silly child, it is ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS how much you love God
An unbelievably strong set of songs on this ablum ...
morrissey is still a legend
His voice has only gotten stronger and his range wider since his cancer scare, it seems. Good on him. He's worked all these years at his artistry.
Has it gone now? The cancer?
@@blackmore4 he never had cancer
@@mini_mozzer I can't remember which specific one, but somewhere on TH-cam there's an interview from a few years ago where he says that he'd been diagnosed with some form of cancer. It's obviously been treated successfully.
@@blackmore4 it was the larry king interview
@@mini_mozzer he did
His songs are their own kind..
Has this man ever disappointed me musically? Nope! I feel like Moz is my musical best friend.
Dan Wilson yes he has and I'm a big fan. He has put out some shit! Fact!
The Moz hasn't lost an inch
Didnt pay attention much on Morrissey’s latest works. But oh boy, this one’s stellar! ⭐️
Please God, never take away this man from us. We need him!!
I love you Morryssey, please live forever!
Morryssey?
"Wait a minute, Morryssey? i thougth that i wrote Morrissey, Why didn't someone tell me? Oh, I've been making an idiot out of myself"

Another great album
Morrissey is a musical GENIUS !!!!!
One of my all time Morrissey songs.
Wow this has just blown my mind!
This is one of his best tracks ever
Tombs are full of fools who gave their lives upon command of heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin....and never coming back, never coming back!.....5th day for me off the junk. Very fragile state. Thank you Moz for helping me quit.
This is a very strong track.
I wish you lonely
If only for one day
So that you might see routine for me
Since the day I was born, born
Think of yourself only
Of everything you demand
Or you want or you need
And to hell
To hell with everybody else, everybody else
Turn the key slowly
Remember how I can't sleep
Or if ever I do, an earthquake
An earthquake couldn't agitate, couldn't agitate
Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command
Of monarchy, oligarch, head of state, potentate
And now never coming back, never coming back
Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command
Of Romance gone wrong, the same old glue
And never coming true, never coming true
Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command of
Heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin, heroin
And never coming back, never coming back
I wish you lonely
Like the last tracked humpback whale
Chased by gunships from Bergen
But never giving in, never giving in

Tombs are full of fools who gave their life upon command ♥️
+ Daniel Massey Who would thought ha?
fostej99 only good line in the whole damn song
Just to clarify something Darlene - 18 year olds aren't allowed on your site, correct?
Good point
To hell with everybody else!
Yes yes yes yes MOZ IS BACK LYRICAL MASTERPIECE.
Still sounding great some 35+ years later👍
?
Since this album was released last month I have played it OVER AND OVER. Can not get enough! Moz is as great as ever if not better.
Very very talented singer.I love Morrissey.
Am I the only person in the world that thinks Morrissey solo is better than The Smiths, his voice, his current societal relevance,
and I am a huge Smiths fan, but Morrissey solo, so powerful.
Saw him in Brighton recently, his singing was the best I have heard him live, and I have been watching him since 1991.
Will I agree completely, was also at that Brighton concert, absolutely incredible
I am with you
@@fostej99
He could always sing but his voice has just got better and better.
He's amazing I love MORRISSEY so much
💘 Morrissey's style. Lyrics are heavy and the music could be a theme for a soundtrack.
This song in 1.25 speed makes me wanna dance for real, great track, I will love this man forever.
José Herondale How do you do that?
In the settings buttom.
Go get ‘em Moz
This song live is everything I needed
Who needs sleep when Morrissey uploads a new vid
Arianna Orellana you beat me to it
marty -- yeah, that was kind of the point?
Oh couldn't you figure the meaning of the song out
Solid. Solid song
Masterpiece
LOL You'd say that if he farted into a microphone
Not really...
Bit of a big statement that...
i think it is one of his best as well. great great song!!
It's alright. Good album though.
What a legend! This song is fire
Fr
I didn't get Morrissey when I was a teenager but now I'm a fully fledged adult I have reached the required level of despondency about the future.
well I must be smart because I'm still a teenager and Morrissey and more specifically the smiths are more relatable than ever
Batassassin I find that really very sad. I had a good look around the world for about about 15 years before I decided yep its fucked.
Thank you for the empathy
Batassassin you make me think of the kids I saw at hong Kong Disney they weren't going on any rides they were just lining up to get a photo with a man in a mickey mouse costume. Even when they had toys they didn't play with them. Kids who Dont know how to play or have fun makes me deeply sad its like they had already given up and they were only five or six years old.
R don't be sad the kid only wanted attention
I wouldn't listen to Moz if I wasn't lonely
You are pure talent!
Brilliant lyrics and sentiment
Morrissey with yet another classic
Can't wait to see him perform this live in December!!! 🎵🎶🎵
i still listen since 1986 now i am 44 years old and my Harry still open.
Yes. This is the Morrissey I like.
Turkish fans love you. ♥ This is the real music.
'My parents are a handful.'
Never before has a Mozza lyric resonated with me more!
Yep putting them in the nursing home is going to be so satisfying
Katzen König where'd you get that from?
He and his musical friends, and production folks make me smile through life’s joy and pain. Forever a great man!
That is by far the most simpleminded clichee i have seen.... A teen saying problems with parents is relatable, hahahhaa!
FireWaia OMG. You have disrespected a Morrissey lyric. Right now the moz army is finding out who you really are then you may have an "accident".
Possibly morrissey best ever song
Love it, new stuff is sounding great. Lyrically powerful soaring melodies, back at his best!
not to mention his voice
It seems these days there are too many who are too quick to criticize this mancunian musical genius. Lets just not have an opinion and die ...
i just love him!
Gunships from Bergen, woooohhhh. Tune.
Once again The Moz has gave the world the gift of song and a song with lyrical magnificence.
This man is/was his time ahead!
I went to his show on Rio de Janeiro. 30/11/2018.
Unforgettable! The best day in my life!
The crunch to this track is my favourite thing ever
This one is so good! Morrissey has not aged a bit.
Única voz Morrissey!!! Buenísima canción.
Outstanding lyricism from music's poet laureate who just improves with age and is more relevant than ever.
"Never giving in."
Lord of Masterpices
His voice has a soothing effect 😏
I Love Him 🎤💙
absolutely brilliant !
Wow
I love his voice
2
truly lovely singing voice
Ângela Balzan hes the best! ❤👌
jane massey
Yeah
Really he is 👏👏👏👏👏
seems he still can produce adictive tunes!!!...ok????
Best ending ever of a song.

Morrissey...the best
Wow he is back more stronger than ever, that bloody gorgeous voice ..... "ohhhhhh never giving in, never giving in"
Oh nunca te rindas, nunca te rindas VIVA MORRISSEY!!!
LOVE THIS SONG!!
love love love this song
My fave from new album.
A poet indeed, outside the box.the Belfast poet Andrew Beattie. Food for thought..
Oh Dios mio, Que nunca muera Morrissey
Utterly WOW!!!
SIMPLEMENTE MORRISSEY!
TRUE TO YOU!
Morrissey is bigger than the Smiths, even though The Smiths was a great band.
I agree.
Plus The Smiths are just 4 (short) albums and some single compilations.
@@colectivonmc4909 And this is more punk than punk was

This looks like a very nice album coming out
I love Morrissey. I love this music. Morrissey is god.
What a Song ..... Awesome ... Only Morrissey making music in nowadays ..... Thank you Mozz !!!
Morrissey is still an absolute genius. Deserves to be multiplatinum or whatever.
Getting goosebumps amazing song!!!
Morrissey's best song since 'You are the quarry' fantastic
Why do I relate so much oh God, I love you Morrissey
Fantastic piece of music 😎
The man, the myth, the MORRISEY
God, this Voice, i just love him....
"TOMBS ARE FULL OF FOOLS WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES UPON COMMAND !"
Finally we get Moz as usual: pain and sarcasm.
Big Morrissey, we love you for a long time
MORRISSEY ❤️
Another great song from the new album of the wonderful icon of world music. Simply the best!
I don't wish no one lonely like I be sometimes...
No para de hacer genialidades este tipo...
Eres el mejor morrissey tu voz no cambia nada sigue hermosa y la melodía el estilo es único
Love this! So good live.
All You Need Is Morrissey
Great great song, great fckn album, prolly his best.
